Whats the difference between the two nikon 18-300mm lens models?
What's the difference between the model 2196 and this model 2216 besides the price?
The 2216 is a promotional type lens that are sold with cameras for the appeal and are very low end. They work but I prefer the next step up which would be the 2196. The 2216 price should be a lot less say around $300. I am not a pro but take a lot of pictures and the introductory lens I have just stay in a cabinet and are never used. I suggest that to see the difference just check the specs on each , they are listed on Best Buy site. The lens made in Japan are better quality.
